JPFO ALERT: UN Ignores Own "Declaration of Human Rights"
Supporters of globalization often point to the UN's
"Universal Declaration of Human Rights"
http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html as being equivalent
or even superior to the US Bill of Rights. Once again, we
are being lied to.
One of our supporters recently sent us this chilling email.
As you read it, ask yourself if such a thing could happen
in a country with a Bill of Rights Culture.
---- (begin excerpt) ----
Today I was handing out JPFO anti-U.N. pamphlets in front
of the United Nations visitor's entrance. I was behaving
peacefully and orderly, and I thought that I might be
protected by the United Nations' "Declaration on Human
Rights" and the U.S. constitution, which are supposed to
protect political speech and free expression.
The U.N. guards immediately started harassing me and trying
to get me to leave, and claimed I had no right to hand out
literature there. I explained to them that I had consulted
with a lawyer, and all sidewalks in the city are city-
owned, and I have a right to hand out literature there. A
U.N. superior officer immediately went across the street
and summoned a New York City police officer to order me to
leave.
I explained to the NYPD officer that I had consulted a
lawyer and I was breaking no laws by distributing
literature here. The NYPD officer, Officer Rizzo of the
17th precinct, said he didn't care about the law or
lawyers, and claimed the U.N. was a "National Security
Area" and I was not allowed to hand out any literature
here, and I had to go across the street; and he went on to
say that I could only hand out literature in certain places
across the street, and not others, including that I was not
allowed to hand out literature in front of any consulates
or embassies, including not in front of the U.S. Embassy.
When I tried to explain to him again that my lawyer had
confirmed my project was legal, he again said laws and
lawyers are meaningless, and he ordered me to leave and tried
to intimidate me physically. I left and walked away, but
then went back to ask him some questions for my incident
report. Officer Rizzo started to threaten me and menace me,
refused to answer any questions, and he and two other
officers followed me up the street, threatening to arrest me
and throw me in jail.
So I walked away, and came home, but I immediately filed an
online complaint with the Complaint review Board, and I am
planning to call up some TV stations to see if they'll do a
report on this phenomenon (of police harassing
conscientious citizen-activists who are exercising their
rights).
---- (end excerpt) ----
Article 19 of the UN's "superior" Declaration states,
"Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and
expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions
without interference and to seek, receive and impart
information and ideas through any media and regardless of
frontiers." And Article 20 states, "Everyone has the right
to freedom of peaceful assembly and association."
And yet here is an activist, peacefully assembling and
imparting information and ideas _in front of the UN
building itself_ ... and at the UN's request, he is
harrassed and threatened until he is forced to leave. So
much for human rights. Or the American Bill of Rights, for
that matter. The First Amendment specifically states,
"[Congress shall make no law] abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press; or the right of the people
peaceably to assemble..."
It should be stressed that the UN is not the only villian
in this incident. An American, a New York City police
officer, played the thug at the UN's behest. He bullied and
intimidated another American -- one who was not breaking
any laws -- in order to please his UN masters.
What kind of world can we expect if the UN's "Universal
Declaration of Human Rights" supercedes the Bill of Rights?
And what kind of world can we expect when our own
countrymen put their pensions and welfare ahead of our
Constitutionally guaranteed rights, turning against us to
slavishly enforce the UN's demands?

My opinion, the immediate cost in liberty that these insane gun laws create for those that are oppressed by them is nothing compared to the long-term effect they have on the mentality of those citizens, or more importantly on the future generations that live under those laws.
Example in point, this idiot NYPD cop, Rizzo, that would reportedly say something like, "laws and lawyers are meaningless". This is a clear example of someone, despite specialized training in law enforcement, that has been brainwashed by an authoritarian government, such as the City of New York. Since the Sullivan Law of 1911, we have seen over four generations grow up in New York City learning that rights are merely something that the government spoon-feeds to the people, and they can easily be taken away like a toy from a toddler.
Having never been there, I have no desire to ever visit that city. It is no different than Krakow under Hitler.
